HISTORY
BO-CAMP LOG HOMES
Bo-Camp Log Homes is a family run business specialized
in the production of pre-cut, milled, white pine square
logs produced in kit form destined for log home construction.
Mr. Guy Lavergne, President, and wife Claire Héroux,
secretary, assume the administration responsibilities.
HISTORY OF LOG CONSTRUCTION
Here is our harsh Canadian climate temperature can
sometimes drop below -40C. Our ancestors soon discovered
that Canadian timber especially white pine, offered
comfort and longevity to their homes. Not surprising
that even today we can still see these buildings throughout
our countryside. Some of these homes date back hundreds
of years, many of which withstood the test of time without
any chemical protection.
Bo-Camp Log Homes is located north of Trois-Rivières,
surrounded by immense softwood forests. World renowned
for its high quality timber and excellent forest management,
this area offers an economic and accessible supply of
white pine, which we transform into 6``X 6``or 6`` X
8`` square logs and siding. We have chosen white pine
for our construction not only for the ease of its transformation
but for its stability and superior insulation characteristics.
The thermal mass of its highly cellular structure enables
the wood to absorb and retain heat. Therefore allowing
you to keep warm and snug in winter and nice and cool
during those hot summer days. These are just a few reason
why the Bo-Camp concept of log structures is well appreciated
by our customers year after year.
